I've been depressed since childhood!. I'm now 26 years old!. I knew I was sad back then but I always thought I would "snap out of it" as I got older and life began to happen for me!. Well, now I'm older and I still have sadness- although a different type!. The sadness I have now stems from hopelessness!.

I think I am depressed for many reasons- dysfunctional family life growing up that has continued even to this day!. I've been in abusive relationships!. I've suffered extraordinary amounts of loss!. And some of it might be genetic!.

I'm currently in therapy now!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I've felt depressed for a long time, around the age of 12, which I always just blamed on crazy hormones!. In the past two years, I'm 17 now, my depression became very severe!. A lot of things could've caused it!. My parents have impossible expectations, and I was never good enough!. Everyone was always fighting, and I felt so alone and neglected!. My father was emotionally abusive towards me and borderline physically abusive!. My mother used to hit me to make herself feel better!. Anyway, boring, the list goes on and on!. Life caused it!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

Ya know the chunky nun from "Sister Act" that is always just a bubbly person!? that's me!.
How ever, Clinical depression does run in my family!.
Some depression is normal, loss, failure, etc!. !. !.
But if one is depressed for no reason then they need to see a counselor!. could be a chemical imbalance as in the case of my relatives, or it could be from a repressed incidence, like from, mental, physical, or sexual, abuse!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I was probably depressed off & on all during my life!. I grew up in an alcoholic, abusive household & used to wish alternately that either I would die or that I would have enough guts to commit suicide or that I was brave enough to kill my abusive father!. It sucked!. I got away from all that & thought I was okay, but then when my best friend got sick suddenly & then died I was lost - lost within myself, I cared about nothing!. Nobody, not even myself!. When I started having to go into work on Fridays & apologize to everyone I worked with for my bitchy behavior during the week, I knew I needed help!. My family doctor prescribed an anti-depressant & suggested I seek group therapy for my weight problem, which he said was a direct result of my depression!. He was right - I found Overeaters Anonymous & am 150% better than I ever was today!. Oh, and by the way, I'm almost 51!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I think i was about the age of 13-14!. When all of a sudden you no longer care about playing with dolls, and now are concerned with your appearance, and what clothes to wear to "fit in"!. Life then doesn't seem so careless!. I think what caused it could be that my hormones were changing, the people surrounding you, and how you chose to react to certain things!. It's all about your attitude and your mind set!. You are the only person in the whole world who can make yourself happy!. That is the best advice I have yet to receive!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

I still don't know if I have been depressed, well!.!.!.I think I have but I've just hidden it so well from friends and family that no one would believe it anyway!.

When I was 12 my dad tried to kill himself but we found him before it was too late!. That kind of turned my world upside down and I've never spoken about it with him or any other people really!. Then a whole lot of other bad things happened after that and I began losing friends!. I also had to move schools which was a total disaster!. There you go!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

9 or 10!. Chemical imbalance caused it!. I had it all along but didn't realize it until it got very bad!.Www@Answer-Health@Com
